This makes sense: each package gets its own set of dependencies, so it would make sense. We should consider adding the jquery alias, possibly when the user enables autoProvidejQuery. It's tricky, because I want to balance wtf moments and not make more wtf by adding this alias (there are probably some edge case use-cases where the alias could mess something up).

anyway, if you have multiple jQuery copies locally, because some plugins are not declaring their dependencies the right way, you cannot always fix this with an alias (what if they are incompatible versions ?).
